It's the nature of the beast with a young team. Some nights they're ready to play. Other nights, we don't get off to a good start or we don't finish well. The bottom line was, Portage just had more of a sense of urgency.
Danny really had the hot hand. He's had some big nights like this. We did a nice job of finding him and getting him the ball.
Kyle's a guy who doesn't get a lot of notoriety, but he does the little things that make a solid basketball team.
It wasn't a good fit at all, that's all I can say. It wasn't a good fit for my family and I. It was not a good fit for the basketball program.
They (Merrillville) wear you down physically, which eventually hurts your mental approach. We gave up too much middle penetration at the end, which led to them getting inside looks or fouled.
That's going to change. We will play with a big sense of urgency. We're going in with the feeling that we're the underdog and are going to have to play very good to beat them.
I think that was the turning point, because that was a real critical stretch. It was a three-point game. You just can't have those kinds of mental breakdowns and the theme of the game for us was mental mistakes.
I really appreciate his great fighting spirit. He had a fantastic effort.
That didn't have anything to do with it, Well, it wasn't the only reason.
